Carlsbad Chiropractic

Recently, voted TOP DOC Chiropractor of San Diego, 2011. Common complaints are Headaches,
car accidents,
lower back pain, neck pain, leg/arm pain and sciatica. Your Health is very important to us. We believe no
one cares more about you than we do. We are unsurpassed at rehabilitation, stretching, physical therapy, and
overall fitness of your body. We are equipped with state of the art physical therapy machines. We use a
spinal decompression table.
We know you have many concerns, such as, "Has the Doctor seen this condition before? Does the Doctor
know what the problem is and can my problem be fixed?" Doctor Gamboa has heard these comments before. If
your condition requires a specialist, we will refer you to the specialist that most meets your needs.
Dr. Desi Gamboa is highly skilled in the treatment of patients in pain. He has treated many conditions
including neck pain, headaches, scoliosis, back pain, shoulder pain, whiplash, sciatica, lower back pain,
foot pain and people who have been in a car accident and many other problems that may affect the human body.
"Pain is there for a reason, the body is trying to tell us something. I have seen countless people in pain
over the years. I have seen how one's entire well being can be affected when in pain. Our whole way of life
and attitude change when we are in pain. I love being the chiropractor and watching the pain resolve and the
patient returning to well being".
Common tendency is to wait and hope the pain goes away and most of the time it does. I believe if the pains
still persist after a week, treatment is needed. The longer it goes untreated the longer it takes to recover.
We are unsurpassed at rehabilitation, stretching, physical therapy, and the overall fitness of your body. We
are equipped with state of the art physical therapy machines. We use a spinal decompression table, which is
wonderful for people suffering with disc compression, disc herniation, disc protrusion, arthritis, and vertebral
stenosis. The usual symptoms are pains that tend to radiate out and possibly down one arm or both arms, pain down
one leg or both legs. When pain refers down into the leg or legs it is commonly referred to as sciatica. This
spinal decompression machine information can be found elsewhere in my website under the spinal decompression
tab. We also use machines such as muscle stimulation, ultrasound, cold therapy and intersegmental traction. An
X-ray machine is onsite should x-rays need to be taken.
We also have a flexion/distraction table which is great for opening up the joint and allowing the intervertebral
disc fluids to be hydrated into the discs helping enlarge the disc. The flexion/distraction table is also very
good because it stretches the muscles of the middle and lower back.
We offer Therapeutic Massage which is used to prevent dysfunction, to relieve pain, to restore or augment function
and to promote health. Massage therapy is an accepted part of many physical rehabilitation programs, and has also
been proven beneficial for many chronic conditions, including low back pain, arthritis, fatigue, diabetes, high
blood pressure, immunity suppression, bursitis, headaches, depression, infertility, and more.
Dr. Gamboa has been in the Chiropractic health care since 1989. At Carlsbad Chiropractic, he has treated hundreds
of people who have been in automobile accidents. He specializes in treating neck pain, lower back pain, sciatica,
headaches, soft tissue injuries resulting from car accidents; particularly whiplash injuries.
Dr. Gamboa had been the chiropractor of the Jockeys at the Del Mar Racetrack.
We want our patients to feel comfortable knowing that from their first visit on, they will be treated
with care and compassion.
